  • the variable speed drive system is arranged above rail 18a. It could only have one deformable structure of which the two movable parts would include shafts 19a and 19b of the wheels 17a and 17b. In each region of variable speed, the distance between the shafts 19a and 19e, can be very large, several decameters in practice, one would obtain a triangular structure between two containers having a very large size perpendicular to the shafts 19a and 19b in each region of minimum speed. In order to overcome this disadvantage, as shown in FIG.
  • a number of triangular deformable structures of secondary movable parts 3c, 3d, and 3e are mounted like the principal movable parts 19a, 1%, between the rails 18a and 18b.
  • Third freerunning pulleys 5c, 5d, 5e, and 5f are carried by tension carriages 6c, 6d, 6e, 6f running on a rail 7c.
  • the shafts 19a and 19b carry, apart from wheels 17a and 17b of the containers, the pulleys 2c, 2d of the triangular structures and the guiding devices relative to the rails 18a and 18b.
  • a quadrilateral type variable speed drive system will now be described. It is shown diagrammatically in perspective view in FIG. 7.
  • the movable elements of the system are cross-pieces 41 having wheels 42 which run on two rails 43. Guide means, not shown, ensure the correct positioning of each cross-piece 41 with respect to the rails 43.
  • the drive system connects adjacent cross-pieces in pairs. It has two supports 44 which slide laterally along a shaft 45. Each support bears two free-running pulleys 46 and 47 mounted on a vertical shaft. Flexible links 48 and 49 having a constant length, which may be belts or chains, interconnect respectively the pulleys 46 or the pulleys 47 of two successive movable elements.
  • Two runners 50 and 51 are each mounted on the vertical shaft of each support 44 and are each guided by one of two cams 52 and 53.
  • Thedrive system provides coupling between the mobile elements with spacings varying as a function of the profile of the cams, these spacings determining the variation of speed of each of the mobile elements.
  • a group motor not shown, drives the assembly in a region of constant speed. Starting from this region, each mobile element drives the following owing to the described drive system.
  • each support 44 sliding along its axis 45 so that each runner 50 or 51 is in contact with its respective cam 52 or 53.
  • the profile of the cams 52 and 53 is such that the supports 44 sliding along their shaft 45,, approach each other or move away from each other. This causes the movable elements concerned to do the opposite because of the constant perimeter length of each link.
  • FIG. 8 This movement is shown more clearly in FIG. 8 where the cams 52 and 53, the runners 50 and 51 of each movable element, the pulleys 46 and 47 of each support 44 (not shown), and the links 48 and 49 interconnecting them are shown.
  • the described drive system allows a movable element to pass from a region of low constant speed V to a region of high constant speed V or vice versa, across a region V where-the speed varies at a predetermined rate.
  • This rate allows, in particular, parameters to be used which lead to added comfort, these being generally the maximum values of acceleration and its first derivative.
  • the spacing between the cross-pieces 41 being variable, it is necessary to join to them plates or the like, which form an upper continuous surface of the transporter on which passengers, if the'transporter is for pcdestrians, can stand or move about, these plates can be of any known type but are preferably grooved so as to provide a combing between the plates and also the landing plates at the edge of the transporter.
  • FIG. 9, which must be considered with FIG. 8, shows diagrammatically the position of movable element associated with the drive system of FIG. 8.
  • FIG. 9 shows the cross-pieces 41, their wheels 42, the rails 43, and the plates 54 which are each fixed at one of their ends to a crosspiece 41 while the other end moves by sliding or rolling on a neighbouring plate 54.
  • the plates are nearly end-to-end.
  • the plates overlap more and more until the region of maximum overlapping in the region V of minimum speed.
  • the distance between two movable elements is large, which is the case when the movable elements are personal carriers with a capacity of six to eight persons for example the width becomes excessive. It is then possible to separate two successive movable elements by intermediate elements. Thus for example, one crosspiece in ten carries a personal carrier, whereas the remaining nine only serve as relays for the links which have thus a more suitable length.
  • variable speed drive system is also advantageous when applicable to side-rails for variable speed people carriers.
  • the side rail shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 carries a plurality of similar triangular assemblies, of the kind shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and arranged vertically.
  • Several parallel links 1g pass over the two free-running pulleys 2g carried by two parallel shafts 3g and over free-running pulleys 5g supported by a tension carriage 6g running on a rail 7g.
  • the shafts 3g are guided in any known way on a rail 4g.
  • On the shafts 33 are fixed bridges 20 which span the belts 1g and the free-running pulleys 2g.
  • the bridges 20, which act as movable elements, have a transverse dimension such that the passengers can grip them with the hand. This is normally driven by these movable elements at a speed which is preferably synchronised with that of the variable speed transporter, this being particularly easy in the case of a transporter such as that shown in FIGS. 3 and 7. If the hand of the user leaves the bridge 20 which he was holding or cannot reach such a bridge at the beginning, the hand comes to rest on the cover of the belts lg. This is not dangerous because the cover is not moving relative to the transporter. Furthermore, a linking point can be fixed, that is to say a free-running pulley may be replaced by fixing means. Thus the belt cover constitute a perfectly reliable support.
  • each element of the side-rail only has one triangular link.
  • the bridges overlap the points of attachment of two consecutive triangular assemblies.
  • the links are formed so as to provide a stable support for the hand of a passenger.
  • the linear drive at constant speed can be realised with the aid of an endless assembly, for example a rack, chains, or a linear induction motor, the induction elements being fixed to the-movable elements.
  • the pulleys supporting the loops upstream and downstream of a cross-piece may not be coaxial as has been shown in the described embodiment. This arrangement requires the least space but it may also be useful to arrange these pulleys in the same plane so that the tension between two consecutive loops does not produce a torque on the element which supports these pulleys.
  • a system for the variable speed drive of movable elements guided along a trajectory comprising couplings connecting the elements in pairs, deformable polygonal loops forming said couplings having the same constant perimeter, the said loops being mounted in tension between at least three linking points of which at least two are carried respectively by two successive movable elements and at least one follows a cam arranged substantially along said trajectory said cam having a profile such that said movable elements move towards and away from each other respectively in the regions of deceleration and acceleration, at least some of said linking points being pivotable or slidable members for free deformation of the said polygonal loops.
